Mine is also sort of a consumer review, a review written by the owner of a product to comment on whether or not the product or service delivers on its promises. If you go back you will see a major weakness and how Tom Pigeon counters it. There is a smaller one or two weakness also. I like the product. I give you the contents, I mention what you can expect from the MGME, how and why you can use it, and I am telling you why I love it. Nothing more nothing less. My opinion.  If it happens to promote the product I like all the more better 
If you care to write a review about [the I]Mythic Game Master Emulator[/I] I would be happy to read your opinion and I am sure others would like to read it also  |
Your lack of objectivity, plus the plugs for the game in your .sig, make you come across as a badly-disguised shill for the company. This severely hurts your credibility as a reviewer, and damages the reputation of the company as well.
ALL I know about the product is what your review tells me. ALL your review does is repel me from the product. Based on your review, I have no inclination at all to get the product.
You have done the author a grave disservice.
After reading this review, I found a blog with the author discussing the design. That blog repaired a great deal of the damage your review has done.
You really, really need to think about your reviewing style. I had NEVER HEARD OF THE PRODUCT BEFORE I READ YOUR REVIEW, and the ONLY impression I came away with was "This guy is being compensated to plug this product."
That is not the impression you want to give. It doesn't matter a dingo's kidney if it's true or not; if somebody who has never heard of you, nor heard of the product, comes away with that impression, it is a bad review.
